Step 4: Start attaching those shells!

Step 5: Clean up your glue, mount on wall and enjoy!

Hot glue doesn't take long at all to set, so you will be able to hang these up pretty quickly after finishing. Before putting them up on the walls, c...

I decided to redecorate my bathroom in the ubiquitous beach / seashell theme, but decided that the walls were too naked for my liking. With a less than $20 worth of parts I was able to add some real flair to the "throne room!"

This is my first instructable, so I would love some constructive criticism :)

Step 1: Materials ...

1. Set of three "wall cube" shelves from Target ... about $15.
2. Seashells. I was lucky to find these for $1 a basket at Dollar Tree. I only opened two baskets & didn't even use all of them, so I had plenty.
3. Craft foam, also $1 a pack at the Dollar Tree. I only ended up using most of a single cube, so I had plenty left over.
4. Hot glue gun & glue sticks.
5. Cutting board.
6. Sharp knife.

Since I already had the knife / cutting board but bought everything else, I think the whole thing cost me under $20 for the parts I actually used (I bought more than I needed).

Step 2: Cut the foam

You don't want the foam to take up the entire cube, and it only needs to be flush against the front of the cube (you don't want it sticking out). I cut one cube in half, then cut each "skinny" square into pieces.
